Finding a Packer Brisket in Suburban Philadelphia?

[Adam E]

I know this is a pretty specific question, but does anyone here know of a source for packer briskets in the King of Prussia area outside of Philadelphia (Collegeville actually)?

The only meat market near me is Carl Venezia meats in Plymouth Meeting. Years ago when starting out, I bought a brisket from them and they swore it was a packer (I didn't know any better). It was wrapped in paper and when I got home I found it was just the flat. They also charged me $70 15 years ago.

We don't belong to Costco or Sam's.

Thanks!

Costco for $60 annually might well be worth it. Wegman’s used to carry them but I haven’t shop there in years. You could ask at meat counter there or any other in area and see if they’ll order. Sometimes it’s a case minimum but that’s okay if you have a freezer with space.
